      Says Jens:

 "Time to push off some of the pending items.  I really wanted to wait
  until we had the regression nailed, but alas it's not quite there yet.
  But I'm very confident that it's "just" a missing expire on exit, so
  fix from Tejun should be fairly trivial.  I'm headed out for a week on
  the slopes.

  - Killing the barrier part of mtip32xx.  It doesn't really support
    barriers, and it doesn't need them (writes are fully ordered).

  - A few fixes from Dan Carpenter, preventing overflows of integer
    multiplication.

  - A fixup for loop, fixing a previous commit that didn't quite solve
    the partial read problem from Dave Young.

  - A bio integer overflow fix from Kent Overstreet.

  - Improvement/fix of the door "keep locked" part of the cdrom shared
    code from Paolo Benzini.

  - A few cfq fixes from Shaohua Li.

  - A fix for bsg sysfs warning when removing a file it did not create
    from Stanislaw Gruszka.

  - Two fixes for floppy from Vivek, preventing a crash.

  - A few block core fixes from Tejun.  One killing the over-optimized
    ioc exit path, cleaning that up nicely.  Two others fixing an oops
    on elevator switch, due to calling into the scheduler merge check
    code without holding the queue lock."

      Tejun Heo authored 
      11a3122f "block: strip out locking optimization in put_io_context()"
removed ioc_lock depth lockdep annoation along with locking
optimization; however, while recursing from put_io_context() is no
longer possible, ioc_release_fn() may still end up putting the last
reference of another ioc through elevator, which wlil grab ioc->lock
triggering spurious (as the ioc is always different one) A-A deadlock
warning.

As this can only happen one time from ioc_release_fn(), using non-zero
subclass from ioc_release_fn() is enough.  Use subclass 1.

      Staging tree patches for 3.3-rc3

Big things here is the deletion of the Android pmem driver, as it's
obsolete and no one uses it, the gma500 driver as it's already in the
drm portion of the kernel tree, and the pohmelfs filesystem as it's
obsolete and a rewritten version is being proposed for the fs/ section
of the kernel.

Other than that, a smattering of different bugfixes and regressions, and
some omap drm api merge fixups that were needed due to api changes in
the main portion of the drm tree, allowing this code to build properly
again.

      Dan Carpenter authored 
      The current error handling doesn't work because we flash_part is a u32
so the checks for negative error codes don't work.  I considered making
things signed but I don't know the hardware enough to say if that's a
problem.  Really, we don't use the error codes so just returning zero
for all problems is fine.

      tty: serial: omap-serial: wakeup latency constraint is in microseconds, not milliseconds · 19723452
      Paul Walmsley authored 
      The receive FIFO wakeup latency estimate in the omap-serial driver is
three orders of magnitude too small.  This effectively prevents the
MPU from going to a low-power state when CONFIG_CPU_IDLE=y.  This is a
major power management regression and masks some other FIFO-related
bugs in the driver.

Fix by correcting the most egregious problem in the RX wakeup latency
estimate.  There are several other flaws in the estimator; these will
be fixed by a separate patch series intended for 3.4.

The difference in low-power states with this patch can be observed via
debugfs in pm_debug/count.

This estimate does not have any effect when CONFIG_CPU_IDLE=n.

      tty: serial: OMAP: block idle while the UART is transferring data in PIO mode · be4b0281
      Paul Walmsley authored 
      Prevent OMAP UARTs from going idle while they are still transferring
data in PIO mode.  This works around an oversight in the OMAP UART
hardware present in OMAP34xx and earlier: an idle UART won't send a
wakeup when the TX FIFO threshold is reached.  This causes long delays
during data transmission when the MPU powerdomain enters a low-power
mode.  The MPU interrupt controller is not able to respond to
interrupts when it's in a low-power state, so the TX buffer is not
refilled until another wakeup event occurs.

This fix changes the erratum i291 DMA idle workaround.  Rather than
toggling between force-idle and no-idle, it will toggle between
smart-idle and no-idle.  The important part of the workaround is the
no-idle part, so this shouldn't result in any change in behavior.

This fix should work on all OMAP UARTs.  Future patches intended for
the 3.4 merge window will make this workaround conditional on a
"feature" flag, and will use the OMAP36xx+ TX event wakeup support.

Thanks to Kevin Hilman <khilman@ti.com> for mentioning the erratum i291
workaround, which led to the development of this approach.

      tty: serial: OMAP: use a 1-byte RX FIFO threshold in PIO mode · 0ba5f668
      Paul Walmsley authored 
      In the (default) PIO mode, use a one-byte RX FIFO threshold.  The OMAP
UART IP blocks do not appear to be capable of waking the system under
an RX timeout condition.  Since the previous RX FIFO threshold was 16
bytes, this meant that omap-serial.c did not become aware of any
received data until all those bytes arrived or until another UART
interrupt occurred.  This made the serial console and presumably other
serial applications (GPS, serial Bluetooth) unusable or extremely
slow.  A 1-byte RX FIFO threshold also allows the MPU to enter a
low-power consumption state while waiting for the FIFO to fill.

This can be verified using the serial console by comparing the
behavior when "0123456789abcde" is pasted in from another window, with
the behavior when "0123456789abcdef" is pasted in.  Since the former
string is less than sixteen bytes long, the string is not echoed for
some time, while the latter string is echoed immediately.

DMA operation is unaffected by this patch.

Thanks to Russell King - ARM Linux <linux@arm.linux.org.uk> for some
additional information on the standard behavior of the RX timeout
event, which was used to improve this commit description.

      Reduce the number of expensive division instructions done by _parse_integer() · 690d137f
      David Howells authored 
      _parse_integer() does one or two division instructions (which are slow)
per digit parsed to perform the overflow check.

Furthermore, these are particularly expensive examples of division
instruction as the number of clock cycles required to complete them may
go up with the position of the most significant set bit in the dividend:

	if (*res > div_u64(ULLONG_MAX - val, base))

which is as maximal as possible.

Worse, on 32-bit arches, more than one of these division instructions
may be required per digit.

So, assuming we don't support a base of more than 16, skip the check if the
top nibble of the result is not set at this point.

      ixgbe: ethtool: stats user buffer overrun · 9cc00b51
      John Fastabend authored 
      If the number of tx/rx queues changes the ethtool ioctl
ETHTOOL_GSTATS may overrun the userspace buffer. This
occurs because the general practice in user space to
query stats is to issue a ETHTOOL_GSSET cmd to learn the
buffer size needed, allocate the buffer, then call
ETHTOOL_GSTIRNGS and ETHTOOL_GSTATS. If the number of
real_num_queues is changed or flow control attributes
are changed after ETHTOOL_GSSET but before the
ETHTOOL_GSTRINGS/ETHTOOL_GSTATS a user space buffer
overrun occurs.

To fix the overrun always return the max buffer size
needed from get_sset_count() then return all strings
and stats from get_strings()/get_ethtool_stats().

This _will_ change the output from the ioctl() call
which could break applications and script parsing in
theory. I believe these changes should not break existing
tools because the only changes will be more {tx|rx}_queues
and the {tx|rx}_pb_* stats will always be returned.
Existing scripts already need to handle changing number
of queues because this occurs today depending on system
and current features. The {tx|rx}_pb_* stats are at the
end of the output and should be handled by scripts today
regardless.

Finally get_ethtool_stats and get_strings are free-form
outputs tools parsing these outputs should be defensive
anyways. In the end these updates are better then
having a tool segfault because of a buffer overrun.
